MongoDB monitoring
UPDATE 2: We have launched our advanced MongoDB monitoring tool.
UPDATE 1: We have a 6 part blog series on MongoDB monitoring available here.
MongoDB monitoring is now available for our server monitoring service, Server Density. As I have written about in the past, MongoDB is the non-relational database product we use to power the service ourselves, and we’re pleased to now support it natively in the agent.
This requires an updated agent, which is available via the OS packages or as a manual upgrade.
Supported metrics include:
- Current connections
- Available connections
- Op counters (per second) – query, insert, update, delete, getmore and command
- Virtual, mapped and resident memory
- Index counters – misses, hits, accesses and index miss ratio
- Asserts – regular, warning, msg, user and assert rollovers
It requires the pymongo Python library and MongoDB 1.3 or above. It is also only available to trial and paid users.
Configuration is one line in your agent config.cfg file pointing the agent to your MongoDB server:
mongodb_server: server.hostname.com
Let us know if you have any questions or problems.
What about postgres? ;-) Regards
We have had a few requests and it’s on our list, but you could always write a plugin in the meantime
+1 for postgres!
Postgres, please! :)
How do you specify a port number?
Use a colon e.g. localhost:28017
